“Alice was an excellent sitter - professional, responsive, and sent plenty of photo updates throughout the stay. I could rest assured that my dog was being well-cared for!”
About: Hello! Dogs and cats have been part of my life since I was a child. My Nova Scotia Duck Tolling retriever, Marley, was the love of my life! As others have said, animals make a house a home. I hope you and your dog will consider mine a home-away-from-home. My home consists of a family of three (myself, my high school-aged son, and our kitty). I work from home so your dog will enjoy a lot of love and attention throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard and there are also parks, nearby, if walks are requested. I would consider taking more than one dog if the dogs are comfortable with one another and my cat, Moby. Moby is 6 years old and he has a catio and a finished basement to retreat to so each fur babe can have time apart. Please reach out if you have questions. I work from home so I can provide company and comfort to your pup throughout the day. I have occasional, local errands. My best times are early mornings and evenings for walks or extended play. I have a large fenced yard for fun exploration and sniffing. If your fur babe prefers their crate or bed when they're away from home, please bring it along. They can also snooze on the couch or in bed with me. I have a one-story home and your dog will have access to every room on the main floor. The finished basement will remain a cat-only space. When we meet, I'll ask you to share favorite activities that help your dog feel happy and comfortable.
“Elizabeth took great care of my old boy for 5 days. Her consistent updates and photos made me feel such at ease knowing he was in good hands. She was also very flexible and great to work with. Would definitely have her watch Rexxar again. Thank you!!”
“Su and her family did an amazing job taking care of Milo for our trip! I got daily updates and he looked like he was having a blast. I really appreciated how flexible they were with meet up times too. We’ll definitely be reaching out again when we need someone to watch him!”
“Merlin enjoyed his stay. We liked the updates, photos and taking time to meet in advance. Thank you for taking our senior beagle on walks. Liliana took great care, we hope to book again soon.”
“Ian has done a wonderful job taking care of our pup for us! He has checked in with us throughout our dogs stay, keeping us updated on her condition. I think she is going to be sad to come home! I highly recommend Ian for your dogs!”
“Dave and Phyllis are very attentive and caring. I know my baby is getting babied when he is with them, and they are flexible and accommodating. They alerted me that my dog’s allergies had begun to merit medical attention when I came to pick him up.”
“Jennifer is super friendly and communicative and took fantastic care of my dog! Her family are all dog lovers and I felt like my fur child got all the care and attention she could have asked for. Highly recommend.”
“John was very communicative and responsive from start to finish and Twain had a nice time. Definitely helped the human side of the separation anxiety during a last minute trip. Lots of photos and updates and was great when Twain lost something at the house to drop it off. Thanks, John!”
“Liam was great! Left my dog for the first time to go on vacation and he sent me multiple texts a day with pictures to assure me things were going smoothly. He was very flexible and accommodating. My dog loved him and will no doubt book with Liam again!”
“Cynthia took great care of my dog at her place. She followed instructions, kept me updated, and even made my dog rice to encourage her to eat. Her dog was very friendly with my nervous greyhound. They even played together in Cynthia’s back patio.”
“Kanade and her husband were such amazing sitters for my 2.5 year old Pom mix, Marsha. They treated her like she was one of their own and were so communicative with me. I'll definitely asking Kanade to watch her again soon. Thank you again!”
“Erika was an exceptional sitter! She took amazing care of Nino while I was out of town providing updates with pictures. She was very helpful and easy when it came to booking with her. Will definitely book her again!”
“Absolutely wonderful experience with Mary and her husband! They took amazing care of our Bentley. Mary was extremely attentive, took the best pictures & videos and provided us with regular updates. It was easy to see how well they cared for him. We are so thankful to them for loving on our little guy and would highly recommend over and over again!”
“We were traveling out of state with our up and needed a last min place to put him while we explored the city. Ariella was friendly and super communicative. Thank you so much for all the pics!”
“This was Cassie’s first time with Aaron and she had a wonderful time! Aaron sent pictures and videos, asked questions if he needed more information about our pet and was very communicative. We have another booking with h and we are so at ease knowing Cassie is in good hands! Just amazing!”
“I knew Kate before I found out that she was a dog sitter, which was great since I liked her from the start. Kate is mellow, kind, soft spoken, and easy to talk to. These are the perfect qualities that I wanted for my tender and loving Sunshine. Kate bonded with her in the most gentle way to make our special girl comfortable. Kate deserves not just 5 stars but accolades for making “us” relaxed/reassured with daily communication and such terrific pictures when we were away. I sincerely commend her and already told her about our next vacation. Anyone who wants or needs to be away from their dog should book Kate without hesitation!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Norwood
This is my first experience with Juliana and she was fantastic! My dog legs takes medication and she was able to follow the instructions very efficiently! She understood he had high anxiety. He was so comfortable staying with her and looks forward to staying with her again in the future! I love my experience with her and look forward to future stays with my fur baby.
Shelby and Robbie were a great place to leave our two dogs for an extended time. One has some serious anxiety towards other dogs and they handled the situation and came up with a plan for her. They let us know how they were doing and we are thankful for them! Would use them again!
Paloma was fantastic and her family is wonderful. She arranged a meet and greet for her big fluff of a dog and my tiny dachshund. They got along great. My dog was happy and comfortable and relaxed when I picked him up. He had a great time emptying their toy box! I will book again.
Marci is the best! She’s so kind, gentle, and was amazing with my cats. I truly felt so secure and at peace knowing she was watching my babies. She’s communicative, careful with your cats, and treats them as your own. She’s also really knowledgeable. I know my cats felt safe and happy being in her care. I couldn’t have asked for someone better to watch my cats. If you’re looking for a safe sitter, and a safe space, I highly recommend Marci!
First I used Sharna at the last minute on an holiday weekend and she and her family welcomed Poc and Poki with open arms and took them right into her home. She treated them as if they were her own. Sharna played with them and walked them every day. Poc and Poki were so happy there they didn’t want to leave when I picked them up. I would refer everyone to her if they want their pets cared for properly !
Dana is a great listener, followed our every expectations & then some. The pictures received didn't even look like the pugs were even over @ another home, which made us feel so relieved & relaxed🥰🤗. You could tell they were really cared for & loved as if they were her owned.
Saya and David are absolutely incredible pet sitters! They sent us plenty of updates about Cricket’s stay. They also were so wonderfully kind to her; snuggling her, playing fetch, basically treating her like she was their own family member. I’ve never felt so safe leaving my pup before!
Khaing saved me and my pussycats, when we all had to leave our house in one day. She came and picked them up and took thoughtful and considerate care of them for a very long time. I got photos and updates on them daily. She discovered new food and snacks for my fussy eater. Although my own life was in chaos, I was happy to see the cats safe and sound. It was a wonderful experience and I recommend Khaing highly.
Sarah was amazing! She was incredibly accommodating with our last minute booking and made the whole experience so easy. Our boy had the best time playing with her dog, Kobe! Sarah kept us updated throughout his stay and sent lots of pictures, which we really appreciated. He came home happy, well cared for, and completely worn out from all the playing and excitement! We would absolutely recommend Sarah and would happily book with her again.
Barbara was such an amazing host to our puppy Astra! She sent over plenty of pictures and a wonderful video of our pup playing with her dogs. Astra had a great time and came home absolutely exhausted which is a rare sight. Looking forward to booking with her again!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in PA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
